Fear

Fear is an unpleasant emotion brought about by the idea of coming danger, either real or imagined. Fear often arises out of proportion to the actual threat involved - often, the fear of something is worse than the actual thing. Fear is comparatively easy to cause, and can be difficult to get rid of once it's there.

Like most emotions, fear is particularly intensive in children, and tends to become easier to get under control as people grow older.
